It's that time of the year again for school supplies. The supplies list was on page two of the letter that was mailed to you, and it can be found on page two of this previous post. In order to save some class time on the first day of school, please consider labeling your materials ahead of time. Also, please note that each color is for a different subject. Please write student's first and last name in the upper right-hand corner of each folder and notebook. Please label as follows: |

Your child is welcome to cover the front and/or back of the composition notebook with items such as pictures, stickers, colorful duct tape, etc. The pictures should remind your child of things that he/she likes or enjoys doing. They can also be reminders of good times from the past. Hopefully these images will trigger emotions, ideas, and memories for our upcoming writing pieces.
Feel free to use photos (Kids, make sure you check with mom or dad first!) or any type of media (magazines, comics, calendars, stickers, etc.). It’s a good idea to cover the pictures/etc. with clear contact paper or packing tape so they do not come off when the journal is moved in and out of the desk. Or, your child may just choose to keep it plain. (I chose to use an orange notebook to go with my orange folder, but any color of composition book is fine.)
Feel free to bring all of your supplies and move right into your desk and locker at the back-to-school open house on Wednesday, September 2nd from 5:30-6:15.
